Any good mono repo build tools out there? I've been thinking about this for the past few weeks. Considering creating a general purpose monorepo tool chain and potentially a mono repo first CI system.

Unfortunately some of the most popular CI/CD services out there(Travis, Circle, etc) don't even support cross-repo pipelines, much less mono repo builds.

Pants and bazel sound like favorites

Interesting, thanks! Didn't realize Bazel was open sourced..

Those both look way more in the weeds than what I would have imagined.. I guess for Bazel at least it makes sense given Googles scale how fine-grain they would get into caching and incremental builds..

For my needs a simple tool that would allow discovering "WORKSPACES" and constructing a build graph based on what's changed, while handing off the actual building to some entry point in the workspace, would be good enough. Have a weird collection Gradle projects, node projects, test suites, docs, and etc with their own build processes already in place.

Some things are also on a "critical" path while others can run async given the context(branch, tag, etc)...

I'm rambling though.

Does anyone know how please (https://please.build) compares?
